Do you have a picture with the question?
Answer:
6 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since they've given use the area of the triangle, we can use the area formula to find the base of the triangle.
The formula to find the area of a triangle is:
a= 1/2hb
h = height
b= base
We know:
a=24
h=8
Answer:
x=-5, y=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute x=-4+y into -2x-5y=15. So we have
-2(-4+y)-5y=15
8-2y-5y=15
-7y=7
y=-1
And x is -4+y so x= -4+(-1)= -5.
0.19 for one cookie and 0.59 for one doughnut
x for how much one cookie costs and y for how much one doughnut costs
6x+4y=3.5
12x+5y=5.23
solve by substitution: (elimination would work too)
4y=3.5-6x
y=0.875-1.5x
12x+5(0.875-1.5x)=5.23
12x+4.375x-7.5x=5.23
4.5x=0.855
x=0.19
now use x to solve for y:
6(0.19)+4y=3.5
1.14+4y=3.5
2.36=4y
y=0.59
Check the work: 6(0.19)+4(0.59)=3.5
